The Body Count Continues: The Cast Of 'Friday The 13th II' Look Killer 35 Years Later

It may be hard to believe, but it's been 35 years since Jason Voorhees first sliced and diced his way through a cohort of horny students on the unluckiest of dates — well, unlucky for the students anyway.

Friday the 13thII may not have made as much money as its predecessor, but by adhering closely to the formula of the original, delving deeper into the mythology of Camp Crystal Lake, Jason's debut still grossed over $21.7 million in the States alone. Not bad for a film made on a budget of just $1.25 million.

Kind of shows though.

It seems that not all of that profit made its way to the cast, each of whom have enjoyed varying degrees of success since Friday the 13th II first premiered way back in 1981.

Check out how the likes of Amy Steel and Warrington Gillette are faring now, 35 years later.

More recent appearances:Another World (1990-1992), The Young and the Restless (1993), The Bold and the Beautiful (1995).

So there you have it. Turns out it's not easy to find work after starring in one of the most iconic slasher movies of all time. At least the cast will always have their memories of Jason Voorhees to look back on fondly.
